Approving a professional services agreement with AVRP Studios Inc. to prepare objective design standards and procedures to streamline the permitting process for multifamily housing and mixed-use development projects within the Village & Barrio Master Plan area 2. Approving a charter for a design review committee to review and provide recommendations on the draft objective design standards 3. Appropriating funding in the amount of$160,000 to the General Fund to implement the project in fiscal year 2021-22, which will be reimbursed by a state Local Early Action Planning grant Executive Summary Senate Bill 35—Streamlined Approval Process, enacted in 2017, requires all local jurisdictions to approve qualified multifamily housing projects ministerially based on objective regulatory standards. Ministerial approval means projects must be approved if they meet the state law requirements, without subjective judgments from decision makers. In 2019, the City Council directed staff to form an ad-hoc design review committee to work with a consultant on developing objective design standards and a potential design palette for the Village & Barrio Master Plan area. This item addresses SB 35's requirements in the Village & Barrio Master Plan Area and follows up on the City Council's direction to establish the design review committee. The ultimate goal of this effort is to convert the current design standards in the Village & Barrio Master Plan, which are subjective and open to interpretation, into clear and objective design Oct. 19, 2021 Item #7 Page 1 of 47 standards for multifamily and mixed-use housing projects. In keeping with the provisions of SB 35, having objective design standards allows for the streamlined review and approval of development projects that are consistent with the design standards. Similar objective design standards are being developed to be applied to development projects outside the Village & Barrio Master Plan area, as authorized by the City Council on Jan. 19, 2021. Following a competitive bidding process, staff recommend awarding a professional services agreement to prepare the objective design standards to AVRP Studios Inc. in an amount not to exceed $160,000 (Exhibit 1). In accordance with City Council direction, staff also recommend the city form a design review committee whose mission will be to help develop the new Village and Barrio objective design standards. The council's approval for the agreement is required under Carlsbad Municipal Code Section 3.28.060(D)(5), which established the City Council as the awarding authority for the procurement of professional services that will cost the city more than $100,000 per agreement year. Staff recommend the City Council appropriate $160,000 to the General Fund for the professional services agreement. The city will be reimbursed by state Local Early Action Planning grant funding previously awarded to the city in an amount not to exceed $160,000. Discussion Background The governor signed multiple housing bills in 2017 to address the ongoing state housing crisis, including Senate Bill 35 -Streamlined Approval Process, which requires all local jurisdictions to approve qualified multifamily housing projects that meet the state law requirements ministerially, based on objective regulatory standards. On Dec. 10, 2019, the City Council approved a motion to form an ad-hoc design review committee to work with a consultant to develop the new objective design standards for the Village & Barrio Master Plan area (Exhibit 4). More recently, on July 13, 2021, the City Council approved the city's new Housing Element which includes Program 1.11—Objective Design Standards to implement the state's requirement for establishing objective design standards for multifamily housing projects. Given this direction, staff propose to develop objective design standards for multifamily housing and mixed-use development projects for the Village & Barrio Master Plan area with the assistance of AVRP Studios Inc., an architecture and planning firm. Additionally, as directed by City Council, staff propose a charter to guide the formation of a design review committee whose mission will be to help develop the new Village and Barrio objective design standards and a potential palette of architectural design styles. Grant funding The City Council directed staff on Jan. 19, 2021, to apply to the California Department of Housing and Community Development for a Local Early Action Planning grant to fund three projects: 1) A Permit-Ready Accessory Dwelling Unit Program 2) Housing Element pro-housing policies (intended to cover costs associated with the development of the Housing Element update) 3)Village & Barrio Objective Design Standards for multifamily housing and mixed-use development projects. Oct. 19, 2021 Item #7 Page 2 of 47 The first and third projects will be brought back to the City Council at a future date. On June 1, 2021, the state informed the city it had been awarded the fully requested grant award amount of$500,000, with $160,000 of it to be used for the Village and Barrio objective design standards.The final grant agreement for fund distribution is anticipated to be executed by fall 2021. The grant term ends Sept. 30, 2023, with reimbursements to be released to the city no later than Dec. 31, 2023.The Village and Barrio objective design standards project is anticipated to be completed in spring or summer 2023, well before the grant term ends. Additionally, the appropriation of$160,000 to fund the professional services agreement will be reimbursed in full through the grant funds once the project is completed. Professional services agreement Consultant selection process Staff issued a request for proposals to obtain professional services for the consultant on this project on July 8, 2021, following the formal bidding process outlined in Carlsbad Municipal Code Section 3.28.060(D).The city received three proposals. A staff committee evaluated the proposals to determine the best value for the city and found AVRP Studios's proposal exhibited the necessary qualifications and competence at a fair and reasonable price. AVRP Studios is a multidisciplinary firm with architects, planners, and urban designers with offices throughout Southern California. Its relevant work experience includes the City of Rancho Cordova's Multifamily and Mixed-Use Guidelines &Architectural Styles, County of San Diego's Objective Design Standards/Streamlining process for Casas de Oro/Spring Valley Communities and City of Riverside's Innovation District- Objective Design Standards. Scope of work AVRP Studios' proposed scope of work, tentative project timeline and fee schedule can be found as Attachment A to the City Council resolution (Exhibit 1). It includes four primary tasks required to complete the project consistent with the terms of the grant. AVRP Studios's scope of work can be summarized by task as follows. o Task 1: Create Objective Design Standards & Streamlined Permit Process, including a potential palette of architectural design styles for multifamily housing and mixed-use projects (up to five architectural styles). o Task 2: Identify amendments to city documents necessary to implement the project including amendments to the Village & Barrio Master Plan and Local Coastal Program. o Task 3: Create educational materials, project applicant guides and conduct training workshops for staff and development applicants. o Task 4: Conduct community outreach throughout the two-year planning process including facilitating design review committee meetings, conducting community surveys, coordinating with the city's Communications & Engagement Division on community outreach and attending up to three public hearings. Design review committee charter As directed by the City Council and outlined in the proposed design review committee charter, the design review committee's purpose is to review and provide comments and recommendations for developing the objective design standards, including a possible new Oct. 19, 2021 Item #7 Page 3 of 47 palette of architectural design styles for the Village & Barrio Master Plan area.The proposed charter(Attachment B of Exhibit 1) defines the committee's rules and procedures including the composition and appointment process, as briefly discussed below. Committee size and composition To ensure a balanced representation of community perspectives, staff recommend that the committee be comprised of a seven-member committee as follows: • One Planning Commissioner • One Historic Preservation Commissioner • One Village resident representative • One Barrio resident representative • One Village or Barrio business owner representative • Two representatives with expertise developing multifamily housing and/or mixed- use projects in the City of Carlsbad, preferably within the Village & Barrio Master Plan area. Staff believe this committee composition is appropriate because: • The Planning Commission's purview covers land use decision-making, including the development of multifamily housing and mixed-use development projects. • The Historic Preservation Commission's purview includes rendering advice and guidance on any historical area or site. The Village is home to a majority of Carlsbad's historic resources and the Barrio reflects elements of its past in its historic buildings. • Those representatives who reside and/or work within the Village and Barrio would be the most familiar with the community character and also most impacted by the new development of multifamily housing and mixed-use projects, so the panel would include one Village resident, one Barrio resident and one Village or Barrio business owner. • Architects and/or urban designers on the committee who have experience designing and/or developing multifamily and mixed use development in the city(preferably in the Village/Barrio)will provide the committee with valuable technical expert advice, experience and recommendations with the knowledge and background of being part of the community. Committee appointment process Staff recommend the following process to appoint members to the committee: • Each respective commission will nominate a commissioner to serve as a member of the committee.The Mayor or the Mayor Pro Tern will consider and confirm (approve)the recommended nominations. • The District 1 Council Member will recommend the Village resident representative, Barrio resident representative and Village or Barrio business owner representative. • The Mayor or Mayor Pro Tern will recommend the two representatives with expertise developing multifamily housing and/or mixed-use projects in Carlsbad • The City Council will make the final decision on all citizen committee representative appointments. The process outlined above is consistent with and similar to past committee appointment processes, such as the one used for the Housing Element Advisory Committee. Once the charter Oct. 19, 2021 Item #7 Page 4 of 47 is adopted by the City Council,the City Clerk's Office will immediately conduct appointment solicitations. The nominations will then be forwarded to City Council by the City Clerk's Office for the City Council's final approval within approximately two months from when the charter was approved. Options Exhibit 2 details options for the proposed professional services agreement and alternate options for the design review committee's size, composition, and appointment process. Fiscal Analysis The cost of this project is expected to be an amount not to exceed $160,000 and will be reimbursed by the state's LEAP grant fund program. Because the grant funding will not be reimbursed until a later fiscal year, a current year appropriation of$160,000 in grant funding is required. Next Steps Staff will execute a professional services agreement between AVRP Studios and the city, and staff and AVRP Studios will begin work on Task 1 of the project's scope of work, which includes a project kick-off meeting.The formation of the design review committee will be completed by December 2021 or January 2022.This will be followed by the committee's initial meeting in early 2022. The target completion date for the project is spring or summer 2023, before the grant term ends.

Mission Statement The mission of the Design Review Committee (DRC) is to participate in and provide guidance in developing new objective design standards for multifamily housing and mixed-use development projects within the Village and Barrio Master Plan area. The DRC must also review and provide guidance on a potential new palette of architectural design styles for multifamily housing and mixed-use development projects. Principles of Participation Role of Design Review Committee Members To achieve the mission of the DRC, the City Council is asking members to constructively provide input into the development of the new objective design guidelines for achieving the following: • Become familiar with state housing law and housing needs, constraints, and opportunities in the state, regional, and local context • Become familiar with the Village and Barrio Master Plan's existing design standards/guidelines related to multifamily residential development and mixed-use development projects • Become familiar with the historic background of the Village and Barrio Master Plan area • Become familiar with the existing historic structures within the Village and Barrio neighborhoods • Attend a minimum of three (3) meetings over an approximately one-year period • Adhere to the project schedule and respond to established deadlines • Keep interested community members informed of the progress of the project • Encourage community participation throughout the development of the objective design standards • Listen to and respect diversity in perspectives, facts and opinions • Provide constructive feedback to city staff and consultants on works in progress at key points during the development of the project Design Review Committee Charter Page 3 of 8 Oct. 19, 2021 Item #7 Page 23 of 47 City of Carlsbad • In decision-making, balance individual and group stakeholder goals with the larger public interest and legal requirements • Work collaboratively with other DRC members in reaching decisions and making recommendations to the City Council Representation and Appointment The committee will be composed of a total of nine members as follows: • One Planning Commissioner • One Historic Preservation Commissioner • Two Village resident representative • Two Barrio resident representative • Two professionals with expertise designing and/or developing multifamily housing/mixed-use development in the City of Carlsbad; preferably in the Village and Barrio Master Plan area. • One Village or Barrio Business Owner representative Each respective commission will nominate a commissioner to serve as a member of the DRC. The Planning Commission and Historic Preservation Commission will nominate one commissioner each.

The City Council Member for District 1 will recommend the four residents and business owner. The Mayor/Mayor Pro Tern will recommend the two professionals. The full City Council will make the final decision on all non-commissioner appointment recommendations. Discussion Process During DRC meetings, committee members agree to abide by the following discussion process: • The committee will select a Chair and Vice-chair • The committee will establish ground rules for how members should conduct themselves during meetings • The preferred decision-making process is collaborative problem-solving • Consensus of the DRC will take precedence over individual preferences • In cases of non-consensus, the Chair may call for majority vote of the committee; however, alternative perspectives will be documented • Planning staff and the project consultant will be present at all meetings to assist in the facilitation of meeting discussion with the Chair and committee as needed Design Review Committee Charter Page 4 of 8 Oct. 19, 2021 Item #7 Page 24 of 47 City of Carlsbad Role of Chair and Vice-chair The Chair will ensure that the DRC meetings are conducted fairly and efficiently,that proper order and mutual respect among all participants is maintained,that there is full participation during meetings,that all relevant matters are discussed,that all committee members have an opportunity to participate in committee discussions, and that necessary decisions are made. To the extent reasonable,the Chair will seek consensus of the committee in decision- making. In instances where consensus cannot be reached,the Chair may call for majority vote of the committee following procedures set forth in Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 1.20. However, the Chair will ensure that minority viewpoints are heard and documented. The Chair will ensure that Principles of Participation and agreed-upon "ground rules" are adhered to. The Chair is responsible for ensuring that members of the public desiring to address the committee can do so at the appropriate time. The Chair may speak to members of the media on behalf of the DRC, and represent the committee at public workshops, hearings and other public events as appropriate. The role of the Vice-chair is to serve as the Chair in the Chair's absence. Meeting Schedule DRC members are expected to make an approximate one-year commitment. The DRC will be formed soon after the City Council appointments are made and will have its first meeting approximately in December 2021/January 2022. The DRC will meet two additional times to review an administrative draft and public draft of the proposed objective design standards including a potential new palette of architectural design styles for multifamily housing and mixed-use development projects within the Village and Barrio Master Plan area. It is anticipated the DRC will conclude its work by approximately November 2022, however, the committee chair or committee member(s) so authorized may wish to continue project involvement by representing the DRC during public hearings on the Village and Barrio Master Plan Amendment to incorporate Objective Design Standards for multifamily housing and mixed- use development projects in early/mid 2023. Meeting Attendance Full participation of committee members is essential to the effectiveness of the DRC, and members are expected to attend all DRC meetings. If a committee member is unable to attend a meeting,that person shall notify city staff as soon as possible. Design Review Committee Charter Page 5 of 8 Oct. 19, 2021 Item #7 Page 25 of 47 City of Carlsbad If a committee member resigns their appointment before the committee's work has concluded, that person shall notify the Mayor/Mayor Pro Tern and City Council in writing, with copies sent to the City Clerk, City Manager and the objective design standards project manager. At their next scheduled meeting,the DRC will consider whether to recommend that the Mayor/Mayor Pro Tern and City Council fill the vacated position. Meeting Quorum For meeting purposes, a quorum of the DRC is met with five members in attendance. Open Meeting Requirements All DRC meetings and committee members are subject to the open meeting requirements of the Ralph M. Brown Act (Brown Act). The Brown Act imposes public notice and access requirements on committee meetings, and places certain limitations on when and how committee members may communicate with one another. At the first DRC meeting, committee members will be given a briefing by the City Attorney's Office about the basic requirements of the Brown Act. In addition to meeting as a committee approximately three times within a 11 to 12-month timeframe, committee members are encouraged to attend other activities scheduled for the benefit of the public, such as public hearings or other potential committee/commission workshops. Member attendance at these activities also may be subject to the Brown Act. Meeting Agendas City staff will prepare meeting agendas and supporting materials in consultation with the Chair or a majority of the DRC following the procedures of the Brown Act. At the end of each meeting,the Chair and city staff will summarize: 1)the committee's recommendations for the Village and Barrio Master Plan's objective design standards and potential palette of architectural styles for multifamily housing and mixed-use development projects; 2) any additional research on items as determined by the committee; and 3) new items suggested for discussion at future meetings. Agendas for future meetings will be established by consensus of the DRC with concurrence of the Chair and city staff. Members of the public have a right to attend DRC meetings and will have an opportunity to address the committee on any issues under its purview. Agendas will include time for public comment. External Communications The overriding consideration in all communications is to honor and sustain the constructive, collaborative process of the committee. DRC members are encouraged to communicate with Design Review Committee Charter Page 6 of 8 Oct. 19, 2021 Item #7 Page 26 of 47 City of Carlsbad their constituencies to keep them informed of the objective design standards for the Village and Barrio Master Plan area and to encourage direct participation. Should committee members speak to the media, members shall provide accurate information to inform the public about the project, but are asked to refrain from engaging in speculation, advocating a position on a specific issue/topic, speaking on behalf of the DRC (except for the Chair or unless authorized by the committee to do so), or otherwise making public statements that would tend to hamper constructive committee discussions. Committee members are asked to notify city staff of any media contact related to the committee and its work. City staff will be available to assist in any communications to the media, if desired. Information Sharing To ensure all DRC members have the same information available to them, all documents will be distributed through city staff. If a member has information,they would like to share with other committee members,the information should be given to staff for distribution to the entire committee. Maintaining this flow of information will facilitate a respectful, collaborative process, and help avoid unintended violations of open meeting laws (e.g., serial meetings). Work Products In addition to its role as representatives of and conduits to community stakeholders, the DRC will be responsible for reviewing and providing guidance on draft work products, specifically on objective design standards including a potential palette of architectural styles for developers to choose from when developing multifamily and/or mixed-use development projects in the Village and/or Barrio.The DRC is not responsible for reviewing the permit streamlining process update that is being proposed as part of the project. As previously requested by City Council, the DRC is charged with reviewing only the objective design standards including a new palette of architectural design styles. The primary purpose of the DRC in reviewing the work products is to ensure that the objective design standards accurately replaces all subjective design standards. The draft work products that the DRC will likely review include but are not limited to: • Staff, consultant, and subject matter expert reports and presentations on objective design standards, sample architectural design styles, and other relevant documents related to the development of multifamily housing and mixed-use development projects; Design Review Committee Charter Page 7 of 8 Oct. 19, 2021 Item #7 Page 27 of 47 City of Carlsbad • Sites analysis related to existing historic structures within the Village and Barrio Master Plan area; • Recommendation on draft objective design standards including a potential new palette of architectural styles to choose from; and • Meeting minutes Design Review Committee Charter Page 8 of 8 Oct. 19, 2021 Item #7 Page 28 of 47 Professional Services Agreement & Design Review Committee Charter alternative options discussion Professional services agreement There are two alternative options that can be pursued other than approving a professional services agreement with AVRP Studios. Option 1, staff recommendation: Approve a professional services agreement with AVRP Studios Pros • AVRP Studios is a highly qualified multidisciplinary firm with architects, planners, and urban designers. • They have great experience in community outreach and facilitating/presenting at committee meetings. The project manager is a certified public facilitator. • They have relevant work experience including: the City of Rancho Cordova's Multifamily and Mixed-Use Guidelines & Architectural Styles, County of San Diego's Objective Design Standards/Streamlining process for Casas de Oro/Spring Valley Communities and City of Riverside's Innovation District- Objective Design Standards. • They are very familiar with the region as they have an office located within San Diego • Selecting AVRP will not delay the project schedule and therefore not jeopardize the city from meeting the terms of the grant to complete the project within the required timeframe. Cons • None identified. Option 2: Not approve a professional services agreement with AVRP Studios and request to review another consultant's scope of work for consideration at a later date Pros • The City Council can approve an agreement with a different consultant that is more aligned with its goals, values, and objectives. Cons • The process to select another consultant would delay the project significantly and potentially prevent the project from being completed within the timeframe required under the grant program terms. Option 3: Not approve a professional services agreement with AVRP Studios or any other consultant with the intent to not move forward with the project Pros • It will free up staff time to implement other priority projects. Oct. 19, 2021 Item #7 Page 29 of 47 Cons • The grant fund award of$160,000 from the state will be forfeited and the city will be out of compliance with state law requiring local jurisdictions to approve objective design standards to facilitate the streamlined permitting process of multifamily housing and mixed-use development projects. Design Review Committee Charter Size and composition of the design review committee Staff recommendation:The design review committee would consist of seven committee members. The composition of the seven-member committee is proposed to be: - One Planning Commissioner - One Historic Preservation Commissioner - One Village resident representative - One Barrio resident representative - One Village or Barrio business owner representative - Two representatives with expertise in designing and/or developing multifamily housing and/or mixed-use development in the City of Carlsbad, preferably in the Village and Barrio Master Plan area Alternate option 1: Form a committee with fewer than seven members Pros • A smaller committee can be more manageable Cons • A smaller committee could challenge the ability to obtain adequate representation and perspectives and/or achieve required quorums to conduct meetings. Alternate option 2: Form a committee with more than seven members Pros • Additional committee members may broaden the perspectives represented by the committee. Cons • A larger committee will be more challenging to support and manage. Alternate option 3: Form a committee as recommended by staff, with a different composition Options to modify committee make up include: - Fewer or more commissioner members - More Village and Barrio residents - More Village and/or Barrio business owners - Fewer or more professional experts in architectural design for multifamily housing - Include additional stakeholder groups - Choose members based on additional criteria (e.g., age, years as resident, income) - Other options the City Council may identify Oct. 19, 2021 Item #7 Page 30 of 47 Pros • Additional committee members or stakeholders may broaden the perspectives represented by the committee. • Different distributions could achieve the same goal. Cons • The staff recommended mix of commissioners, residents, a business owner, and subject matter experts, provides a balanced representation and perspective, therefore a change might make it unbalanced. Committee appointment process Staff recommendation: - Each respective commission will nominate a commissioner to serve as a member of the committee.The Mayor/Mayor Pro Tern will consider and confirm the recommended nominations, - The District 1 City Council Member will recommend the Village or Barrio business owner representative, - All City Council members will recommend the Village and Barrio resident representatives and the two representatives with expertise in designing multifamily housing and mixed- use development projects, and - The full City Council will make the final decision on all committee representative appointments. This process outlined above is consistent with past committee appointment processes (i.e. that of the Housing Element Advisory Committee). Once the charter is adopted by the City Council, the City Clerk's office will immediately conduct appointments solicitations and prepare the appointment recommendations for the council to make a final decision on within two months from when the charter is approved. Staff also recommend this process to prevent a delay in the project schedule. Alternate option 1—City Council members recommend all design review committee appointments and the Mayor/Mayor Pro Tem makes the final decision on all appointment recommendations Pros • Similar to staff's recommendation, this option would require the City Clerk's office to conduct the appointment solicitations and prepare the appointment recommendations immediately after the charter is approved, therefore providing the least amount of time to form the committee. Cons • This process is not consistent with past committee appointment processes. • Having more members of the City Council provide a recommendation for the appointments creates a longer process than if the Mayor/Mayor Pro Tern provided the recommendation. Oct. 19, 2021 Item#7 Page 31 of 47 Alternate option 2- Mayor/Mayor Pro Tern recommends all design review committee appointments and the full City Council makes the final decision on all appointment recommendations Pros • Fewer people providing an appointment recommendation can expedite the appointment process. Cons • This process is not consistent with past committee appointment processes. • Because the City Council members are not involved in recommending appointments, there are more chances that the Mayor or Mayor Pro Tem's recommended appointments will not be approved by the full City Council, therefore delaying the committee formation process. Alternate option 3-Staff returns to City Council at a later date with recommended appointments and the full City Council makes the final decision on all appointment recommendations Pros • Staff can conduct a thorough review of committee appointments. Cons • This process is not consistent with past committee appointment processes. • This option would require additional time to schedule the action for another City Council hearing and therefore would delay the committee formation process and the project schedule significantly.This delay would potentially prevent the project from being completed within the timeframe required under the LEAP grant program terms.

Mayor Pro Tern Bhat-Patel explained for the record that as a researcher, she makes decisions based on analysis.

Council Member Schumacher expressed her concern about objective and subjective standards incorporated in upcoming state housing legislative changes. In response to an inquiry from Council Member Blackburn,City Planner Don Neu explained the previous processes of the Village Design Review Board and possible challenges if a group like this were to be reestablished. He also clarified the history of housing in-lieu fees for different sized developments, gave examples of private-public partnerships and business-to-business agreements in relation to parking, and explained that while there is the possibility to make changes, it is timely and difficult due to the regulatory documents and process of approval from various commissions. A Minute Motion by Mayor Pro Tern Bhat-Patel, seconded by Council Member Schumacher,to move approval of allowing decision-making authority for the entire Master Plan area to the City Council. Motion carried, 3/0/1 (Hall—Absent). Council Member Schumacher requested three amendments be implemented, (including decision making authority for the Master Plan); 1.

Council member Schumacher also requested the City Manager keep this a broadly actionable item on the Dec. 17, 2019 agenda. 3. A review of the parking management plan (to include commission review), parking in lieu fee, parking structure feasibility study at the city owned property of Oak and State street, initiation of a Nexus study for housing in lieu fees and to move forward with the staff recommendation of the Planning Commissions public hearing on further items to be addressed. Oct. 19, 2021 Item #7 Page 42 of 47 Dec. 10,2019 Carlsbad City Council Regular Meeting Page 10 In response to an inquiry by Council Member Blackburn, City Planner Don Neu explained several of the amendment items may not be feasible to implement within the timeframes cited due to state laws and guidelines as well as other challenges. In response to an inquiry by Council Member Schumacher, City Manager Scott Chadwick shared the potential timeline and constraints to complete the tasks in a timely manner, including securing contractors and finalizing other pending projects. In response to an inquiry by Council Member Schumacher,City Planner Don Neu explained the timeline and various projects planned to utilize SB 2 funds, including hiring consultants, setting objective standards, and revising both the municipal code and the Village and Barrio Master Plan. Council Member Schumacher explained her support of establishing objective standards to ensure future developments include residents'input.She also stated that she would prefer a design review board that is ad-hoc in nature, assisted by consultants, using previous drafts of architectural designs to create a tool box, and receive residents' final stamp of approval. In response to an inquiry by Council Member Blackburn, City Planner Don Neu explained staff can request that consultants modify their scope of work to address Council's direction. Minute Motion by Council Member Schumacher,seconded by Mayor Pro Tern Bhat-Patel, to add to a future agenda, the formation of an ad-hoc design review board, whose composition and appointment process will be decided at that meeting, to work with a consultant on the objective design standards and the design palette for the Village and Barrio Master Plan area.
